[00:01.59]Little something for my god son elija and a little girl named koreem
[00:05.01]Some say tha blacker tha berry
[00:13.38]Tha sweeter tha juice
[00:14.52]I say, tha darker tha flesh and tha deeper tha roots
[00:17.31]I give a hollar to my sisters on welfare
[00:19.86]Tupac cares, but don't nobody else care
[00:23.55]I know they like ta beat ya down a lot
[00:25.68]And when ya come around tha block brothers clown a lot
[00:27.66]But please don't cry, dry ya eyes
[00:30.69]Never let up
[00:31.56]Forgive but don't forget girl keep ya head up
[00:34.74]And when he tells you you ain't nothin
[00:36.21]Don't believe him
[00:37.53]And if he can't learn ta love ya, you should leave him
[00:40.56]Cuz sister you don't need him
[00:42.57]I ain't tryin ta gash up, but i just callem how i see 'em
[00:45.90]Ya know what makes me unhappy
[00:47.64]When brothers make babies
[00:48.99]And leave a young mother ta be a pappy
[00:51.81]And since we all came from a woman
[00:53.67]Got our name from a woman
[00:55.11]And out game from a woman
[00:57.36]I wonder why we take from our women
[00:59.25]Why we rape our women
[01:00.60]Do we hate our women ?
[01:02.52]I think it's time ta kill for our women
[01:04.80]Time ta heal our women
[01:06.30]Be real to our women
[01:08.10]And if we don't
[01:08.82]We'll have a race of babies
[01:10.41]That hate tha ladies that make tha babies
[01:13.74]And since a man can't make one
[01:15.60]He has no right ta tell a woman when and where ta create one
[01:19.11]So will tha real men get up
[01:21.42]I know your fed up ladies
[01:23.46]But keep ya head up
[01:25.62]Chorus
[01:26.04]Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
[01:31.59]Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter
[01:37.20]Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
[01:41.01]Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter
[01:46.29]I remember marvin gay, usta sing ta me
[01:49.14]He had me feelin like black was tha thing ta be
[01:52.38]And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tuff
[01:54.87]I thought we had it rough, we always had enough
[01:57.63]I often huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke tha rules
[02:00.39]Ran with tha local crew and had a smoke or two
[02:03.51]And realize momma really paid tha price
[02:05.91]She nearly gave her life, ta raise me right
[02:09.93]And all i had ta give her was my pipe dreams
[02:11.97]Of how i'd rock tha mic and make it to tha big screen
[02:15.06]I'm tryin ta make a dollar out of fifteen cents
[02:18.18]It's hard ta be legit and still pay tha rent
[02:20.70]And in tha end it seems i'm headin for tha penn
[02:22.74]I try and find my friends, but they're blowin in tha wind
[02:26.13]Last night my buddy lost his whole family
[02:28.62]It's gonna take tha man in me
[02:30.00]Ta conquer this insanity
[02:31.74]It seems tha rain will never let up
[02:33.54]I try ta keep my head up and still keep from getting wet up
[02:37.29]You know it's funny when it rains it pours
[02:39.45]They got money for wars, but can't feed tha poor
[02:42.93]Sad there ain't no hope for tha youth and tha truth is
[02:46.08]There ain't no hope for tha future
[02:48.51]And then they wonder why we crazy
[02:50.58]I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby
[02:54.18]We ain't meant ta survive, cause it's a setup
[03:27.72]And even though ya fed up
[04:21.69]Ya got ta keep ya head up
